When Twinkie was a little piglet, she somehow managed to find herself on her own wandering the streets. Likely, she fell off of a truck (this happens pretty frequently, actually) or escaped a pen. A kind lady saw her and managed to corral her into her garage. Luckily for Twinkie, her orignal owner could not be located. The local SPCA happened to have a barn at the time, so they took her in. They took care of her for a year, but they did not have much experience with farm pigs and she did not have much freedom there. When the group dissolved, new homes had to be found for the animals. We were happy to take Twinkie, and let her join our herd. It had been a very long time since she had been around other farm pigs, so she was cautious at first. But like all of our new kids, she quickly learned how to wallow in the mud, graze in the pastures and enjoy normal pig things!
